Highly figured bay laurel finished with flaxseed oil
10-7/8" x 4-1/2"
Gorgeous bowl and I love the figure and colors you brought out.
This was a very special, very old tree. One of our club members spotted it being taken down and talked the tree crew into dumping it at his house. He was kind enough to share the wood with the club and I've been trying to do my best by it. What blows me away is that the bowls I posted on either side of this one are also bay laurel, though not the same tree. This wood has a lot of range.
 
You've got a great eye for shape and enhancement, Kalia. All you pieces in this batch of photos show it.
